Background work


Medina   4.5" x 6.5"


I needed to create a quick little quiltlet for the SAQA Spotlight auction. It needed to be 6" x 8" but only 4.5" x 6.5" will be revealed after it was matted.

This seemed like a great opportunity to start playing with backgrounds. This one clearly derives from Taylor's original painting but that's OK. I tend to bleaker subject matter and the little piece needs to be somewhat visually attractive for auction purposes.

This is entirely composed of hand-dyed fabrics from my friend Debbie Vandermeulen.
